As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.


Wow! thats right out of the original poem....I'm not sure I can do much more damage to that stanza than the author, Clement Carke Moore, did but, I will give it a try.

As bulbs that appear tangled by wild hurricane fly
when wrest by installer, blood pressure mounts to the sky.
So up to the tree-top the LED's flew,
With the help of twist-ties and a star'ed "Bumble" too.


The power cord runs along the beam and down the cable to power the tree lights.  This allows the cord to wind and unwind as the tree twirls.

LED "branches" are used here to disguise the cable and the electical cord.  Three LED shrubs were tie-strapped to the cable.  (The shrubs are LED's taped to pose-able metal branches and sold as a unit)
